Katydidsleafy… grasshopper?
Location: Medford MA

This bug clung to the roof of my husband’s car all the way home to Medford MA, from somewhere between his rehearsal in Somerville MA and home. He called me downstairs to the garage to see it, and insisted I bring my camera. It’s huge and walks with an odd gait.

Angle Wing Katydid
Hi Rachel,
This is an Angle Wing Katydid in the genus Microcentrum, and they are classified in the same insect order as grasshoppers, but within the order, they are not closely related.
